Pingle Ancient Town is located in Qionglai City, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, and is located in Tiantai Mountain Tourism Ring Road, a national key scenic spot, 93 kilometers away from Chengdu and 18 kilometers away from Qionglai City. It is a famous historical and cultural town in China, famous for its "Qin and Han culture-West Sichuan water town" and the reputation of "one level, two solids and three passes". Pingle was called "Pingluo" in ancient times. During the Kaiming period of the prehistoric Shu King, a small green basin surrounded by mountains was named after the settlement of water conservancy and agriculture. By the Western Han Dynasty in 151 BC, market towns had been formed, with a history of more than 2,111 years. Pingle ancient town is rich in tourism resources and rich in cultural heritage. The thousand-year-old banyan trees that stand tall on the banks of the Baimo River in Li Zhuo, the diaojiao building along the river with western Sichuan style, the patchwork waterfront wharf, the shops in the ancient streets of Ming and Qing Dynasties and the "Leshan Bridge" across the river in Qing Dynasty all show the ancient charm of Pingle, which can be described as a vivid "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" in western China. The "scenery outside the town" of Pingle ancient town is even more breathtaking: Lugou natural scenic spot, Jin Huashan scenic spot, Jinjigou scenic spot, Sorbus Mountain scenic spot and Qin and Han ancient post road scenic spot are all classics of human civilization.

Entering from the entrance of the scenic spot, you first come to Leshan Street. The canals that snake on both sides of the street and several footbridges of different shapes dress it up as a famous waterscape street, and it is full of fun when you walk. Leshan Bridge, located at the end of the street, is a good convergence of leisure and ambition flowing all over Leshan Street. The largest existing ancient stone arch bridge in Sichuan lies on the Baimo River, quietly listening to the clear water of the river telling the vicissitudes of the ancient town.

Then, we walk through the stockade gate at the bridgehead and walk into Badian Street. Here, you might as well spend some time to appreciate the mottled traces carved by time in the ancient town. At the end of the street is the Badian Street Pier. Looking back at the pier, I saw the blue water and the waves of the ancient bridge, and a picture of the ancient bridge in the water town jumped into my eyes. Therefore, it is also known as the best place to enjoy Leshan Bridge.

Next, the sparkling Baimo River and the centuries-old banyan trees along the roadside will take us to Changqing Street. There is an old photo gallery on the street with a long history. The owner of the gallery, Uncle Yang, has been engaged in photography for more than 61 years. Many old photos in the gallery are the "first photos" to record the history of Pingle images.

At the end of Changqing Street, there is a huge old banyan tree, which is a thousand-year-old banyan tree in Pingle. For thousands of years, it has sheltered the ancient town from the wind and rain and protected its prosperity. Therefore, people in Pingle affectionately call it "the protector". Next, instead of walking, we will board the bamboo raft from the pier under the ancient banyan tree, go downstream, cross the Xingle Bridge, the "Dayu Weir" which is famous for Dayu's water control along the way, and the opposite "Anle Weir" to explain the exquisiteness of "one river divides into three waters", and at the same time irrigate Pingle into a piece of full of green. Then, I came to the Tiangong Yingwu Style Garden. Next, we boarded the boat and went to the Fengqing Garden to learn about the history of Pingle ancient town.

From Tiangong Yingwu Garden, we suggest that you walk along Riverside Road. Rows of ancient houses and Qingshiban Road engraved with the light and shadow of the times will make your journey wonderful. Finally, cross Leshan Bridge and return to the entrance of the scenic spot. At this point, the Pingle travel itinerary we recommended for you is over. Of course, if you have enough time, you can also choose to stay in Pingle for one night, and get in touch with the ancient town through a scene that has been soaked in light and shadow for thousands of years.

Well, that's the tour guide for Pingle ancient town I recommended for you.
